Is this possible (Gui or config files)?

Right now we "get around" this by graphing the hop(s) before and after on two separate graphs but a "suspend hop" would be a considerable improvement on that.

BTW the Ignore Route Changes facility is great, albeit a bit "odd" in terms of the display which becomes none of the addresses involved... Where is that stored?

The hop we would like to ignore pings to happens to be the same one we ignore routing changes on. We are agregating "Lan Extensions" and one of the atrifacts is this behaviour although the net result is a single IP stream for thw balance of the route. Another artifact is if the striping and the ping target are not in sync it is declared to be packet loss as the agregation router apparently has a bad attitude about "hairpin" routing (we suspect that is due to a configuration choice and not an entirely ridiculous descision on a border router....

Thanks.... Bob
